Tempest Report # 4 (2004-10-04)

This report was submitted by GN Master


~Tempest Squadron Weekly Report #4 - 4th of October 2004~

***~CMDR's Rant~***
I must apologize for my lack of report last week, unfortunately i got hit with the Ewok Clap shortly before my report was finished and i spent the rest of the weekend running from the scary doctors with their big needles.

But thankfully ive returned disease free and ready to rock & roll. Amazing what a few days on a pleasure planet will do for you.

Anyway, onto the news.

***~Squadron News~***

*New Squadron Competition - FREE For All*
http://www.ehtiecorps.org/competitions/details.asp?ID=1545

Alrighty, i think its about time i started a comp, so here is my first of (hopefully) many competitions im going to thrill you with :P

It's a typical flying comp, highest scorer wins the medal.
The mission is TIE-FREE Battle #249 - TIE Fighter: Demonstration.

All submissions must be in no later than next Sunday.

This comp is mandatory (MUAHHAHAHA) so we have to fly!!!

Seph & Prost are both excused due to technical issues, but the rest of us have to fly.

Its a fun mission at the least.

*Have Your Say*
Message Board Topic about what you guys want to do is at:
http://www.ehnet.org/mb/viewtopic.php?t=3796
You can have your say on what we do in the coming months.

So i urge all Tempest members to go have their say.

Now go! :P

*Wing Competitions*
There's a few Wing/Ship comps on at the moment, ive listed them below.

Bubba's Bouncy Battle Ballooza

Challenge Historic Trivia
http://www.ehtiecorps.org/competitions/details.asp?ID=1533
This comp has also started, you should all have a list of questions.
I'll be in contact in the next few hours with more about this.

*Tempest Website*
Stuart has asked that i get a Webpage up ASAP.

Currently im creating a page using Squadfirst while COL Sephiroth attempts to get a an older (and really good) site off a former commander.

Expect the Squadfirst site up within a day or two at most. I'll send you all the addy then.

*Squadron Standing Orders.*
Every week i want you to do one of the following:
        Fly something from the Mission Compendium
        Take and IWATS Course
        Add a piece of fiction to a run-on
        Create a graphic
        Submit something for the Squadron Report (Fiction etc)

*Recruitment*
If you haven't noticed Tempest is in desperate need of pilots, get out there and ask your friends, your relatives, parents, grandmothers, dogs, i don't care, lets just get some people in here.

I am offering a ISM per recruit (Cadet and RSV's alike) and a PC per 5 recruits, so theres a chance for you to get lots of medals and to help not only the squad but also the wing.

***~Dark Lord of the Week~***
The highly prestigious title of Dark Lord of the Week is only given to the person who has most advanced the success of the Squadron, amused the CMDR, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper bag. This week's winner is:

Star Wars: Battlefront, hey i like it :P


***~Ewok of the Week~***
Yub Yub!

Every story has a hero, every journey has a first step, every Fleet has a pilot who's about as much use as an ashtray on a speeder bike. This weeks's Prize Ewok is none other than:


Bubba, just cause :P
